Hi i'm jess.

I’m a New York City-based retoucher and photographer with a background in graphic design and over thirteen years of experience in the fashion and beauty industry. I specialize in natural, non-destructive skin retouching that enhances images while keeping them honest. My work spans e-commerce, advertising, and editorial, with clients ranging from boutique brands to global beauty companies.

I like to think of myself as a creative drawn to striking visuals—and the stories they whisper beneath the surface. Outside the studio, you’ll find me devouring psychological thrillers, doodling on my iPad, turning candy into conceptual art, hunting down the perfect luxury candle, or savoring Chinese takeout on a Sunday night. I'm also a firm believer in theater popcorn, good stand-up, and great skincare.

Curious to connect? Let’s chat.
